ms_bradrock,
Thanks for the comment. I guess peace is just not meant to be in this part of the world.

Sarooster and Dr,
I am more aware of how very far into the Arab society the issues go each and every day. My most recent incident in the market, although somewhat humorous, does speak volumes...Peaceful solutions are not within our grasp in this region of the world!

DrJPT,
The Middle East is one big mess. I don't know if anyone can understand or even help out in this matter. We all have to try to do what is best for everyone.

ms_bradrock,
That comment is so very true. If we could just live in peace that would be great, but it won't happen. If we would butt out of the Middle East the whole region would descend into more chaos than they have now. The Arab terrorists would be emboldened and no one in the world would be safe.

And for those who think that we--
the U.S.--should stay out of the fray, we simply cannot if we want to protect the U.S. and it's citizens.

ms_bradrock,
It's a way of life in the Middle East to fight. They seem to enjoy it. To break that habit for them would be something off the scale. All we can is try to keep them as calm as possible.

I don't think there will ever
be any easy answers to the conflicts in this part of the world. Interesting is a good way to describe what may be coming...
